Sunday morning (May 29th) would be best, since it's usually best for driving around Lime Creek rd. Not much traffic.

If you guys prefer Saturday, that would be fine too. I can check / re-arrange my schedule.. But I probably won't be in Austin until 11am on Saturday. Just let me know..

I'd prefer Saturday since I had something scheduled for Sunday, but since I can also rearrange, we can see what others prefer. Also, if you can let me know what the plan is, I can go ahead and let some other 350Z'ers know as well so they can plan on coming or not. Thanks.

Please check with articfury for the driving plan. If everyone prefer Saturday, I can definitely do it. Since I don't get much chance to drive with fellow 350Z'er

Sorry, been busy at work.

I'll get with my friend and finalize the route and meet times.

I think either day would work for the drive part, just whatever works best for the most people.

Spoke with my friend about possible routes.

As I thought, he said that Lime Creek and 1431 are pretty heavily patrolled these days, esp. on weekends. We could do them as part of the cruise, but would be more a parade than anything.

Which brings me to my next couple of questions:

How many people do we think we are going to have?

How much "driving" are we wanting to do?

Are picture opportunities of high importance?

My friend that has a route that is very flexible we can use. It allows for a full day of driving with cut out points where people that can't do the whole thing can break off and head home.

The midpoint of the trip is lunch at Opie's for some great BarBQ. Other than that the time table is pretty flexible.

The start time should be between 8:30 and 10. One of the options is head down to the Willow Loop and go to Fredricksburg for some beverages.

Most of the details of where we want to go, can be decided on site.

The main thing I need to know from you guys is what time we want to start the drive and end it.

I'll be there along with a co-driver.

I'm only seeing 3 Z owners really getting involved here.

I'll start a new thread, maybe that will get it going.

I sent a PM to HavesterUT b/c he expressed interest in the beginning.

Also, I will leave invites to the 3 other Z's at my workplace. I also let someone at the Austin Z club know about it. We'll see I guess.

as of right now, Sunday has 60% chance of rain... Maybe we should go for Saturday?

I can probably be there around 10:30am - 11:00am, coming from Houston.

We'll make a final call as we get closer about a go/no go on Saturday.

The closer to 10:30 the better. Are you not coming in Friday night?
